No one has said Harbough is leaving San Fran except reporters and Deion Sanders. It's rumors until someone in the organization comes out and says he is out or they trade him. Jed York has said more then once this season that "Harbough is our coach". If he is gone, he has said before he came to the NFL to win a Super Bowl, so I don't see him going to Michigan. Plenty of teams will be offering him jobs in the NFL to go back to college.

Boats don't catch fish.

I always make sure I have mine on me. The Conservation Officer here doesn't cut anyone any slack. About 2 years ago my cousin and I were floating a canoe on Back Creek and he yelled at us from the bank to come over, the current was too strong in that area to paddle back to where he was at so we just kept going. Nothing we could do about it. Once we got to the next spot he could pull his truck too he was out in the middle of the creek waste deep waiting for us 4 hours later!! The lake I fish at the most has a pretty narrow road to the boat ramp, I've seen him pull sideways blocking the road so no one could leave and didn't move until he had checked everyone there. One guy was pretty upset because he wouldn't move his truck so he could go to work until he was finished checking everyone at the lake. I think he wrote almost 30 citations that day.

I don't know anything about melting lead but I do a bit of powder paint. Do not use an oven you cook food with. A small toaster oven will work just fine. I have a kitchen oven and toster oven in my garage. I use the toaster oven for smaller pieces so I don't have to heat the bigger oven for a small item.

Caliber is a matter of opinion. Everyone has their pros and cons for every caliber out there. Best is to get something you are comfortable shooting. In your case, if you are trying to get your wife into the idea of shooting or CCW get something she can also shoot comfortably. She is not going to shoot a 45 no matter what you try to tell her. If you want something with a bigger punch then 9mm consider a 40S&W. I've seen you mention Springfield XD a few times, you can shoot 40S&W and 9mm threw the same handgun with a change of barrel and magazine. You can shoot 40S&W, when it's her turn to shoot a quick barrel change and different magazine she can be shooting 9mm for less then $200 more then the cost of the handgun. I have 3 XD40s and a 9mm barrel for 2 of them and 2 9mm magazines, essentially I have 5 different handguns for less then what 4 would cost.

Lately I have had better luck with a white jig then anything else. 2 weeks ago was the first time I used a white jig and caught 6 within 30 minutes.

I agree, I don't have an M3 but I used to get crazy looks and comments when I pulled into the motocross track in a 3 series pulling a 4x6 utility trailer and my 450r.

I completely understand. Since 2007 when I got my CCW I learned there are a LOT of laws concerning conceal carry. Every state is different, read as much as you possibly can and keep up to date with all laws. Some states will change/add/remove laws and it's your responsibility to know them. If you travel to another state read and get to know their laws, they may honor your states permit but that doesn't mean the laws are the same. If I travel I Look up each states laws on conceal carry, print them off and bring that with me. In case I have questions I can find the answers. http://www.usacarry.com/ is a great website, they try their best to keep current with everything they can.

As said above, find a place that rents them out and shoot as many as you can if possible. Just to CYOA I would have the owner put in writing that he gave you permission to carry on the job. That way if he tries to back out and throw you under the bus if something were to happen you're covered. I personally don't like the idea of mace, if you spray into the wind it's only going to effect you. In that situation you will never be able to control whether or not you will be facing wind or not.

I guess you can say I do it all the time. The conversation usually goes like this.... Me: Hey, Art. I'm not gonna be able to make it in today. My boss: You got your boat hooked up already this morning? Me: I'm halfway to the lake. My boss: (laughing) Ok, we'll see ya tomorrow All cell service is lost about 5 miles from the lake, so I can't call from the ramp.

Oh man, I just went threw this with my mom a few weeks ago. On the way back from visiting my brother we stopped at Bass Pro. As I was looking at baitcasters she asked me "Don't you have enough already?" so it made me wonder how many I actually have. So I counted and I have 92 rods and well over 100 reels . Granted most I pick up at yard sales. I've picked up 10-15 at a time along with a few tackle boxes for $20 or less. One of my neighbers is retired and I bring them to him and he checks them out, oils, greases, puts new line on, fixes what he can and gives them back a few days later. It gives him something to do. I've even sold a few to him and made a few bucks. It's a win win if you ask me!

Yard sales. This past summer I picked up 15 rod/reals and 3 tackle boxes, most of the tackle was still new, for $20 at a yard sale.

Over the off season I wil be doing a few things to my boat, making the space more useful for me.

FNG from Wv. Fished my whole life but never really did any bass fishing unitl last year. Went to Missouri last year for work and did some bass fishing there and immediately got hooked! Looking forward to learning a lot.
